Your a Child but I am Grown
You are a child but I am Grown
You were crying for your mother's
breast but I am looking for ways
to stay out of debt
You looked for friends to play
but I look for money day by day
You went to schoool to learn
But I go to school even when I
am burned
You cried because they bullied you
for being fat
But I laugh with my body of
that I have respected
You got the razor and put it near your skin
But I cleansed my wounds from sins
You thought you could end it all
But I thank you for standing tall
You searched for acceptance but got
rejected all the way
But I stopped and learned that it is only me
that can learned from all your wrongs
